Playing with Fire in Jerusalem

follow Wandering around the newer parts of Jerusalem was a revelation, after spending all our time in the Old City; it’s an entirely different place. We went to a section of town that was all bars and young people, passed Hassidim dancing in the street and all sorts of wondrous craziness until we came upon this guy, spinning fire in a square.

go site This was a really difficult picture to take with no tripod, but after at least a dozen frames handheld at 1/4 second shutter speed, I was able to get a decent shot – still shaky, though, as you can see from the buildings in the background. Had I not had such a fast, wide lens, this would have been impossible to capture.
